Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Yan Jia shook his head and said, "Your Highness, as long as you are serious, I will work with you! Moreover, I guarantee that the men I choose will not only be able to fight, but also dare to fight and are not afraid of death! If even one of them shows any fear, you may cut off my head."

Xiao Ce smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right, consider this a lesson! I'll only be teaching you this once, so you all have to learn something!"

Yan Jia bowed and nodded, then hurriedly went out.

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw Nie Bing standing at the door.

Yan Jia saw Nie Bing, bowed slightly in greeting, and then left.

Xiao Ce was somewhat surprised to see Nie Bing arrive alone: ​​"Miss Nie, you're a rare guest. Were you looking for me?"

Nie Bing nodded and looked at Xiao Jiu after entering.

Xiao Ce said to Xiao Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, go and prepare the things we'll need for tomorrow."

Xiao Jiu nodded respectfully and left.

After Xiao Jiu left, Nie Bing glanced at Da Lei beside her again.

"Da Lei, you go out and wait too."

Da Lei was very wary of Nie Bing and looked at Xiao Ce questioningly.

Xiao Ce said with a smile, "Don't worry, I trust her."

Da Lei then left.

Nie Bing turned her back, closed the door, and said coldly, "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"

Xiao Ce said with a smile, "Nie Bing, your biggest problem is that you overestimate yourself and underestimate me!"

"Besides, you came here to confess to me on your own initiative. Why act like a hedgehog? Isn't it tiring?"

Nie Bing turned her head to look at Xiao Ce, staring at him coldly.

Do you know why I'm here?

Xiao Ce laughed and said, "Isn't this all you've come to confess and ask for help? I apologized for calling you all boobs and no brains before. You do have some brains after all!"

"It's good that you stopped in time before you got too mired in the mud!"

Nie Bing stared at Xiao Ce: "Do you know why I'm here?"

Xiao Ce said to Nie Bing, "Do you think I'm bluffing you? To be honest, I don't have that much free time."

"Weren't you threatened into releasing Mos Ashina first? And now, haven't you agreed to some of their demands?"

Nie Bing thought that no one would know about this.

"You...you...you knew all this?"

Xiao Ce poured himself a cup of tea from the table, took a sip, and said, "Otherwise, do you think the person I'm keeping an eye on can be rescued by you so easily?"

"You did this on purpose? Why would you do this?" Nie Bing asked with a strange expression.

Xiao Ce raised an eyebrow: "Don't be so conceited. I didn't do it because of you! I simply wanted to let him go, to let him leave alive with a broken finger, to anger the Turks without making them do anything too extreme..."

“Killing one of them would be easy for me, but the Turks have captured a lot of our people. Who knows if they'll kill the people to vent their anger! So, you've helped me in a way! Besides, I don't want the Turks to think I'm wise and brilliant; I want them to think I'm a complete waste!”

Nie Bing's expression shifted slightly: "If I don't follow your advice, what will you do to me?"

Xiao Ce said with a smile, "Didn't I say this at the banquet just now? Your feeling was right, I was targeting you. If you do anything to harm me or the people I cherish, I will kill you!"

Xiao Ce's smiling words sent a chill down Nie Bing's spine.

Along the way, Xiao Ce's various actions have completely changed everyone's perception of him.

In particular, they killed so many people after entering the northern desert.

They killed without hesitation and showed no mercy.

Seeing Nie Bing standing there with an unpleasant expression, Xiao Ce said, "Since you're here, you've chosen to stand on my side. Tell me."

Nie Bing gritted her teeth, her eyes red, and said helplessly, "I told you, can you help me? If you can't help me, I'll still help them deal with you!"

Seeing Nie Bing say this, Xiao Ce smiled helplessly, thinking to himself, "This woman really is all looks and no brains! You've already said what I said, do you really think I'm stupid, waiting for you to deal with me?"

He said, "Of course! You are my woman after all. I never mistreat my own people. However, if you need my help, you'd better explain things clearly!"

When Nie Bing heard Xiao Ce say this, she had a sudden thought and, unusually, did not retort.

Then he started talking to Xiao Ce.

...

Da Lei stood at the doorway, peering inside to listen to what was happening.

He was originally standing at the door, but he was afraid of missing something.

He had no trust in Nie Bing.

He pressed his ear against the door, listening intently, ready to break down the door if anything seemed amiss.

Just then, Yin Pan'er came over and saw Da Lei bent over and eavesdropping at the door.

It's kind of funny to see it like this.

After all, Da Lei usually presents himself as a cold and iron-willed man, so his current appearance is quite funny!

"Da Lei, what are you doing?"

Hearing the voice behind him, Da Lei subconsciously turned around and saw that it was Yin Pan'er coming over.

He quickly bowed in greeting.

"princess!"

Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "What are you eavesdropping on?"

Da Lei didn't hide anything: "Miss Nie came to see the Prince, and I was afraid she might harm him... That's why I heard the commotion and, thinking something was wrong, I broke down the door to protect the Prince!"

"Sister Nie Bing is here?" Yin Pan'er asked in surprise.

Da Lei nodded, then said, "Your Highness, did you come to see the Prince? If you were here, Miss Nie certainly wouldn't have harmed him, right? Or perhaps..."

Before Da Lei could speak, Yin Pan'er waved her hands repeatedly: "No... I'm looking for the Prince... but they rarely get to be alone together... let's disrupt their time together."

Seeing this, Da Lei said, "Then Your Highness, please do as you please. I'll continue listening."

As he spoke, Da Lei bent over at the door again and started eavesdropping.

Seeing this, Yin Pan'er curiously walked to the door and pretended to casually bend down to eavesdrop.

...

They hadn't been listening for long when the door suddenly opened.

As soon as she opened the door, Nie Bing saw the two people eavesdropping.

Da Lei immediately stood up straight.

Yin Pan'er immediately gave an awkward smile: "Sister Nie Bing, what a coincidence."

Nie Bing looked at Yin Pan'er with an embarrassed expression: "Pan'er...it's not what you think...we are..."

Before Nie Bing could arrive, Yin Pan'er stepped forward, took Nie Bing's hand, and said, "Sister, I'm so glad you're like this. I told you before, I don't mind..."

Nie Bing quickly explained, "It's not what you think. I..."

Xiao Ce looked at Yin Pan'er and was very satisfied.

"Pan'er, you've come at just the right time. I was just looking for you, come in." Xiao Ce interrupted them, not letting them continue talking.

Yin Pan'er was taken aback and nodded.

Nie Bing blushed and said awkwardly to Yin Pan'er, "Pan'er, let's go back and I'll explain to you!"

With that, he hurriedly left!

Xiao Ce said to Nie Bing, "Nie Bing, remember our agreement!"

Nie Bing froze, and even though she had her back to them, you could still see that her face was red to the back of her ears.

Yin Pan'er was curious about what Xiao Ce had said.

After all, she knew very well that when Xiao Ce was serious, he was more serious than anyone could imagine. And when he wasn't serious, he could always come up with all sorts of unserious ideas...

Seeing Yin Pan'er watching Nie Bing flee in panic, Xiao Ce pulled her into the house.

Seeing Xiao Ce's anxious appearance, Yin Pan'er said, "Your Highness, don't worry... I have something important to discuss with you!"

Xiao Ce, seeing that Yin Pan'er had misunderstood, said, "Pan'er, what are you thinking... I brought you in here because I have something important to tell you."

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce: "Your Highness, you should speak first."

Xiao Ce then recounted his plan to launch a surprise attack on the Turks.

Yin Pan'er's eyes widened: "Your Highness, you're saying you're going to lead a thousand cavalry to fight the Turks? Are you serious?"

Xiao Ce nodded and said, "Do I look like I'm joking? You don't need to worry about how to fight the Turks. I already have a plan! I'm going to be away from here for a while. There are a few things that are of great importance! You must listen carefully."
